Now that Spring is here and we're on the fast track to summer (well, most of us, I heard it snowed in Chicago this week), I've been exploring outdoor furniture. The above Marais AC chair, which was designed by Xavier Pauchard in 1934, caught my eye because it's extremely durable (made from powder-coated steel) and can be left outdoors permanently, not just brought out from the shed once in a while. It'll look totally awesome indoors as well. Get it at the Conran Shop for $195 a piece, also available in cream and yellow.
